## Summary
Supplying a language model with evidence passages, whether retrieved or user-provided, should make its answers better grounded. In practice, models often miss the crucial facts when the context also contains noise or irrelevant material. The authors find that this is not a failure to *locate* evidence. When generating the first answer token, the deeper attention layers of several LM families already concentrate heavily on the relevant sentences, even when the final answer is wrong.

SelfElicit exploits this signal at inference time and needs no training:
1. It averages attention per context sentence over the deeper layers.
2. It keeps sentences whose score is close enough to the top score.
3. It wraps those sentences in explicit highlight markers and asks the model to answer again using the marked-up context.

Across open-book QA benchmarks covering single-hop and multi-hop reasoning, SelfElicit yields gains of roughly 5.0–11.7% over plain prompting for several model families. It also beats generative evidence extraction while adding very little compute. This makes it a cheap add-on for retrieval-augmented pipelines built on open-weight models.

## Key points
- **Evaluation setup:** six LMs of varying sizes, including Llama3.1-8B, Mistral-7B, and Qwen2.5 (7B, 32B). Four QA datasets: HotpotQA, NewsQA, TQA, and NQ.
- **Default settings:** sentence scores come from the last 50% of layers, which work well consistently. Sentences are split with spaCy. The selection threshold is α = 0.5, relative to the maximum sentence score.
- **Highlighting and cost:** selected sentences are wrapped in `<start_important>` / `<end_important>` markers. Detecting the evidence requires generating only one extra token.
- **Baselines and robustness:**
  - SelfElicit was compared with CoT, FullElicit (the whole context highlighted) and PromptElicit (the LM extracts evidence generatively).
  - Results are fairly stable for α in [0.5, 1].
  - Multi-hop tasks prefer α near 0.5, while NQ does best at α = 1.
- **Limitation:** the method needs access to attention scores, so it cannot be applied to proprietary models. The threshold is static, and adapting it dynamically is left for future work.
